His adaptability began to surge, absorbing the intensity of her being as he countered on reflex, yet still, an unyielding spiritual current emanated from her form, slowing time and suffusing the battlefield with warmth, erasing the intention of harm. "This is not war," Dei Custos Veniae spoke softly, her voice a balm unto the tumultuous depths of Mahoraga’s essence. "This is an invitation to witness mercy, to embrace what lies beyond pain." Mahoraga, blessed yet tormented by the duality of his existence, felt the divine mercy permeate through his very being. His adaptation moved not to claim a power but instead to grasp a new reality under the calming shroud of her forgiveness.
